Help us save paralyzed "Baby!"

πŸ’”πŸ˜”"Baby" (3.6lbs) is SCHEDULED TO BE KILLED tomorrow, Saturday, April 27, at East Valley Shelter at 4:00 pm UNLESS a miracle happens between now and then! BWF cannot help UNLESS a foster (experienced in special needs rabbits) comes forward and unless we make a MAJOR dent in our $21,000 vet bill. (see comments) If you cannot help with either, please share this post in the hope that someone can help! As always, it takes a village, and we would love to lead the way.
πŸ₯€In the meantime, please take a moment to meet this dear boy who was brought to the East Valley Shelter on April 10, 2024, as "injured" and left there to die. Some of the medical notes include:
πŸ“4/10 – dragging both back legs when placed on a towel; can move across the towel with his front legs; deep pain noted on both back feet, more on the left hind foot than on the right hind foot; given Buprenorphine & Metacam for pain.
πŸ“4/15 – easily felt spine & some of the pelvic bones; when picked up from the weighing scale, palpated large bladder & expressed it; feces and urine squished onto the anogenital area.
πŸ“4/18 – expressed bladder; a large amount. of milky urine present.
πŸ“4/19 – 4/22 - passing feces & urine; however, bladder remains very large.
🌺We've rescued numerous medical buns this month without fundraising. Now, with Baby potentially coming into our care, we're drowning in the surge of new vet bills that threaten to prevent further medical rescuing unless our balance due is reduced (see comments). So, we appeal to you for the most impactful support possible, and we thank you in advance for any help you can offer.
πŸ•ŠPlease find it in your heart to help us rescue Baby. Our situation is so desperate right now, and the reason tells us to let go, but we cannot let this sweet soul die without at least trying. Will you please use the "Donate" button or visit bunnyworldfoundation.org/donate

🐰Paralysis in rabbits is often not permanent, especially if caused by trauma (unless bones are broken, of course). But with lots of TLC, we have witnessed many miracles in the past. We're hoping this is one of those cases that the right healer can mend! Some of you remember Graciella, who was 90% paralyzed. Well, she's almost normal now, and we will be sharing a happy video soon.
🌻Thank you so very much for caring. We hope you'll contribute mercifully to Baby's case and share him wherever permitted.
πŸ’•With ongoing gratitude,
~BWF Volunteers
